Postdoctoral Research Associate I
University of Arizona
Tucson, AZ
$47,659 a year
Position Summary
The Arizona Center for Mathematical Sciences, a research center of the Department of Mathematics at the University of Arizona seeks applications for the position of Postdoctoral Research Associate working in the research group of Dr. Jerome V Moloney. The Center is housed in the College of Optical Sciences at the University of Arizona.
Successful candidates will have a strong background in theoretical/laser physics, numerical analysis and large scale computing in electromagnetics. Suitable candidates should have wide exposure to parallel computing with mixed shared and distributed memory hardware. The class of research problems under study present challenges in intense laser pulse simulation, intense field photoionization of molecules and coupling of light to nonlinear nanostructures.
The postdoc will work in a multi-disciplinary team of applied mathematicians, theoretical physicists and experimental optical scientists. Although the problems under study have their origins in Optics, the behaviors of the pulses have manifestations in many areas of continuum physics so this position affords a unique opportunity for an entry-level scientist who wants to tackle some of the outstanding current challenges in nonlinear science.
The College of Optical Sciences supports the UA’s diversity and inclusiveness strategic initiatives designed to create an inclusive environment for all faculty, staff, and students. The candidate is expected to support diversity and inclusiveness efforts in the department and college.
Outstanding UA benefits include health, dental, vision, and life insurance; paid vacation, sick leave, and holidays; UA/ASU/NAU tuition reduction for the employee and qualified family members; access to UA recreation and cultural activities; and more!
The University of Arizona has been listed by Forbes as one of America’s Best Employers in the United States and WorldatWork and the Arizona Department of Health Services have recognized us for our innovative work-life programs.
